SO I came across this in a search online. Sophie's post inspired me to eventually come clean and finally address how I feel.I am now in my mid 20's.I have been brought up in a loving caring large family not spoilt but anything I needed or wanted to do in terms of education or sports I was looked after well. One day a few months before my main high school exams I experienced something I had never before experienced or could explain. I was sitting in class and my mid went blank and dizzy i had to get out of the room. Since then the past seven years have never been the same. I have struggled on not knowing what this is or how I was feeling and still to some point don't. I went to university and have a good job however the enjoyment out of my life is sucked out. To look at me and know me you would never know. I am just sliding through life without being able to stop worrying or fearing things and having mild anxiety attacks thinking I can't breathe or face a certain situation I hate being on my own and I could be in a crowded room and feeling extremely alone. Its so overwhelming I don't smoke take drugs or go mad on drinking. I exercise lowds but my mind cannot stop racing. Sometimes I have good days others I don't, my family just don't get it. I have tried explaining but like sophie its seen as if I am over dramatic about things. I am a kind caring nice person who would try their best not to do wrong on others but my mind is stuck and I fear I will never be happy. To add to things both my parents are young and are both battling cancer and everyone is saying stay positive which I am thats the funny thing I can be positive to everyone and everyone says god you are such a strong person however I am not positive about myself. Where do I go from here? Anyone have advise?Could it be a hormone imbalance?I have never been on medication for this and I would like to try other venues but im scared to go for help and need confidence to do this.Advise would be great...
